Corned Beef.
The pieces commonly used tor corn-
ing are the plate, rump, .cross -ribs and
;brisket, or in other words the cheaper
cuts of meat. The pieces for corning
should be tut into convenient -shed
joints, say five or six inches square.
It should be the aim to cut them ell
about the same thickness, so that they
will make an even layer in the 'barrel.
Meat from fat 'animals makes choicer
corned beef than that from poor ani-
mals. When the meat is thoroughly
cooled it should be corned as soon as
posaible, as any decay in the meat is
likely to spell the brine during the
corning process. Under no einem-
etances ehould the -meat be brined
while it is frozen.
Weigh out the meat and allow eight
pounds of salt to eath 100 pounds;
sprinkle a layer of salt oueefourth of
an inch in depth over the bottom of the
barrel; peck in as elesely as possible
the cuts of meat, making a layer five
or six mthes 113 thickness.; then put
on a layer -of salt, following •that with
another layer of meat. Repeat until
the meat and salt have all bean pack-
ed in the 'barrel, pare being used to
reserve salt enough for a goodlayer
over the top. After the pack has
stood ovei. night, edd, for every 100
pounds of meat, four pounds of sugar,
